Panzer III Tank Paint Template

[barrydem41]

Hi all, I have a quick question for anybody that knows, were do I put the Panzer III-M skirt skins, I know skins go into data\graphics\skins\_PzIII-M, but I can't figure out where the PzIII-M skirt skins go.

 

Thanks.

Barry

Hi all,

the skin of the skirts is encrypted in data\Vehicles1.gtp.

The name is : _pziii-m02#1.dds

(This is the ochre with green streaks. I didn't find the ochre, winter and "Wien" official textures skirts).

 

(Note : you have to manually create the destination folder : \_pziii-m\textures in vehicles folder).

an example below with some brown and a fictitious tactical number "112" quickly added on only one armour plate." :

Hello Pierre64
Thanks for the info, but it does not work for me ..?
The dds. What do we create for the skirts that name has to have ..?
I put the textures folder inside the _PzIII-M folder, it is correct.
The faldon gave him the name _ pziii-m02 # 1.dds as such ..?
When you say vehicle folder, what do you mean ..?
Clarify me something

Hi all,

Julian, you are right !

Some correctives to my post above :

to associate a Pz III M  with its appropriate skirts, name the Pz III skin : example&1.dds

                                                                                           and the skirts skin : example&1#1.dds

and paste them in :  IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Moscow\data\graphics\skins\_PzIII-M

What you have to do is make a vehicle folder inside of the data\graphics folder.  It would look like this   data\graphics\vehicles\_pziii-m\textures.  Then you just place the pziii-m02#1.dds file you make inside the texture folder.  From what I can tell, the dds file has to be named pziii-m02#1.  Hope that helps you out.

Edit

Hi all, do it the way Pierre64 has suggested as it works, the way i suggested would change it for all official paintjobs.  Thanks again Pierre64 finding out how to do it.

Hello Pierre 64
I can not get it to work, I tell you what I did until now.
I created a skin and the name PzIII-M_3SS_Div_totenkonf 1
I added the 1 and put it in the PzIII-M folder, inside I created the textures folder where I put the dds. called PzIII-M_3SS_Div_totenkonf # 1.
This does not work for me.

Julian,

 

IMO, the name of your Pz III-M skin should finish with &1

and its optionnel skirts skin name with &1#1

 

Please, try :

Totenkopf&1.dds (for your PzIII skin),

and : 

Totenkopf&1#1.dds (for your optionnel skirts).

And paste  them in data\graphics\skins\_PzIII-M

 

Greetings,

Copy the names for the skin and the skirts and pasted in the PzIII-M folder.
It still does not work...?

[Pierre64]

Does your skin folder name begin with a bottom dash ?

Like that : _PzIII-M

 

[Hucky]

It works, here is a test tank, vielen Dank für die Hilfe
